Targeted laydowns in deeper water. Bigger fish were off the bank in the submerged treetops. Used two trailers on my jig, both were from Bojangles Baits. When I wanted a slow fall I used a Cook Craw in Summer craw pattern and to get a faster fall I used a green pumpkin Z-Daddy.

Another hot weekend on the jerkbait. About 18 bass & 10 crappie. Three slab crappies and three bigger bass. Two 2.25lbers and one nice 3.39lb 19" bass for my new PB. The big three bass were all on the Jackall Rerange 110 RT Perch. Throwing jerks as close to grass as possible and working them aggressively back to the boat with variable pauses. Natural/shiny colors definitely played better. I tried throwing an elegy bone 110 later in the morning and only caught a small walleye. Gill/minnow colors with some shine were the money baits.
